Yeah, it's a common fallacy in appliance brand discussions: "my grandma has a and it still works! You should buy one, too!". First of all it's survivorship bias and almost always the quality has degraded a lot in the past decades (greed and consumers that don't want to pay the price for reliable appliances).
The meme talks about how millennials DON'T iron anymore
?
There's another layer to it: it's a meme about AI
Thanks for the insight! I just hope that Porto and Lisbon don't turn into another Paris or Rome...
It really is sad. For more than 25 years I've been visiting Portugal (so yes, I'm part of the problem...) and every year it gets a bit worse: endless new hotels destroying the beautiful views of the cliffs, villages mostly catering the needs of tourists, ...
I just wish I hadn't told everyone how amazing it is in Portugal 🥲
I understand the issues with waterbeds, but for pillows I really don't see the trouble: You don't have to heat them or otherwise maintain them, except changing the water every few years, which is done in 3 minutes: unscrew, old water in the sink, new water in from the tap, close it up again.
Me too! Kind of astonished that nobody else even mentions them. I remember them being pretty hyped about a decade ago and I am still happy with my second water pillow so far.
That really sounds absurd. Both the idea itself and the fact that they somehow screwed up the execution of such a simple thing that much.
